fnatic Exit DraculaN Season 4 in 4th Place as Final Three Teams Emerge

fnatic Eliminated as DraculaN Season 4 Reaches Final Three

fnatic’s competitive year comes to an end as they are knocked out of DraculaN Season 4, finishing fourth in the Romanian Counter-Strike 2 event. The tournament’s penultimate day saw the once-favored squad fall to Friendly Campers, who advanced to the consolidation final. 

Early Setback and Lower Bracket Road

The journey for fnatic at DraculaN Season 4 began with a challenging start. After entering the playoffs as one of the top-seeded teams by VRS ranking, they suffered an early 0-2 loss to CYBERSHOKE, sending them immediately to the lower bracket. 

From there, fnatic showed resilience in elimination matches:

• Defeated MOUZ NXT in a lower-bracket clash to stay alive.

• Overcame Lazer Cats in a deciding match to move further down the bracket.

• Beat illwill to reach the lower bracket semifinal.

Despite these wins, fnatic’s lower bracket run ultimately ended in defeat. 

Decisive Defeat to Friendly Campers

In their decisive lower bracket series, fnatic faced Friendly Campers, the Polish-based lineup formerly associated with ESC. Friendly Campers were able to halt fnatic’s momentum, eliminating them from the tournament with a 2-1 victory. 

This loss sealed fnatic’s fate: a fourth-place finish — their final placement in the 2025 season at the Romanian LAN. 

Final Three Set for the Title Push

With fnatic eliminated, the DraculaN Season 4 bracket now features three teams battling for the championship lineage:

• Friendly Campers, who will face BESTIA in the consolidation final. The winner secures a place in the grand final.

• BESTIA, the Argentine side progressing through the upper bracket.

• CYBERSHOKE, the squad that sent fnatic to the lower bracket, who await in the grand final.

The title decider matchups are scheduled on December 21, 2025, as the Romanian tournament concludes its final day of action.
